| Who
are we?
Membership
fees are $20 per annum for which members receive The HYPOGLYCEMIC HEALTH NEWSLETTER
in April, August and and December of each year. The Association holds public meetings
in Sydney, Australia on the first Saturday of these months, at which experts give
lectures on topics related to hypoglycemia or other nutritional disorders. These
professionals give lectures to the Association free of charge. These are taped
and then reported in the Newsletter, which is then distributed to members. Patients
report their “stories” which they share with other members and professionals.
Other professionals contribute their well-documented articles to the Newsletter.
There is also a section providing recipes. It is an express policy of the Association to encourage doctors to practise complementary medicine - that is to provide non-drug treatment whenever possible and to use remedies based on scientific studies in nutritional medicine or clinical nutrition, including botanical treatment. Following referrals
from interested members and on the recommendation of patients, the Association
provide Newsletters free of charge to their doctors, if they are eager to receive
it. The medical education provided by the Newsletter allows both patients and
doctors to discuss their treatment more profitably. Acceptance of complementary
medicine in society can only be achieved through an educated patient population.
Ultimately, it is medical consumers who will determine the future of medical treatment
in our society. |
